When i play hl2dm and crash (something usual with this game), it doesnt crash like usual. My screen flashes about 10 times and then goes black, then i must ctrl-alt-del and close the application. After that, i hear those beeping sounds in my headphones, like every 30 seconds, and everything is really slow, like the start button reacts about 15 seconds late when i click it, and those beeping sounds continue. Though if i restart the computer, everything is fine. This has started happenning after a bsod last week ( i had to repair windows with the cd ). So yeah i would like to know what causes this. Thanks in advance.

if it's only with that game then try reinstalling and see if it helps or update to the latest patch.

well, as i said, i had a hard bsod last week : i updated my driver from 158.22 to 162.18, fired up condemned, and got a bsod. Restarted the computer, and windows wouldnt boot up, since the system/windows32/config/system was missing or damaged. I had to repair windows with the original cd, and then everyting was fine, now im back with 158.22, and will keep this driver till the next version is released. And this weird way of crashing has happenned since then.

it sometime crashes normally, soetimes it will crash with the flashing screen, and the beeping sounds in my headphones, with the computer being really slow.
